SWCHEM has developed proprietary technology for the synthesis of N-formylmorpholine, NFM, from methyl formate and has been producing NFM since 2001.
Based on this proprietary process, SWCHEM’s NFM is known for its high purity, low acid content and low water content, making it a reliable solvent and raw material for a wide range of industrial applications.
SWCHEM’s NFM purity can reach 99.9 wt%, while many conventional products in the market are typically supplied at around 99 wt%.
N-formylmorpholine, NFM, is an important specialty solvent and chemical intermediate. SWCHEM produces NFM using its proprietary methyl formate-based synthesis technology.
